About This Game

Back home in Houston, your dad is falling apart and so is his legendary black cat-themed metal bar. An unsettling local church wants to replace the entire strip mall (where you grew up) with something sinister. Good news: you find a pool of hallucinogenic slime oozing out of the ice machine in the bar’s empty storage room. It’s your inheritance, kid! All great bars across space and time are connected through psychotropic liquid doorways.

You plunge into the shimmering abyss, blundering relentlessly through history, metaphysics, and vice toward supernatural revelation. When do strangers become family? And when family is threatened, how far will you go to protect your own little chunk of dirtbag heaven?

EVERY NEW BAR IS A KNOT TO UNTANGLE. Read the room. Make connections. Dig through decades of old postcards, occult books, haunted software, strange guerrilla art. Balance a pirate ship by reshuffling masquerade guests, rewire possessed slot machines to solve a decades-old massacre, untangle the drama of a spectral polycule, decode the graffiti styles of 1980s Tokyo.

COLLECT AND LEVEL UP SKILLS. Learn BARTENDING in a 1970s occult swinger bar by coaxing sex and death memories from witches and recombining them into psychoactive cocktails. Learn SEDUCTION on a floating tripot to map the social dynamics of a tarot-themed masquerade. Learn GAMING by beating slot machine ghosts at a figurative card game. Skills level up the more you use them. Shake loose clues in order to slowly unzip every bar's tantalizing mystery.

MAKE EYE CONTACT WITH A STRANGER. Guzzle down raw unpasteurized humanity without concrete social consequences. Nothing matters and everyone is beautiful.
